Babylon Railroad

The Babylon Rail Road was a horsecar line in Babylon Village, New York, later converted to a trolley line. It was opened in 1871 and ceased operations in 1920.
The line's main purpose was to provide transportation between the Long [Island Rail Road] station at the north end of the village center, to ferries for Jones Beach and Fire Island destinations. In 1910 Babylon Railroad established a second line to Amityville Station. They also planned a connection to the South [Shore Traction Company] in Sayville, New York that was never built. By 1918, the original line of the Babylon railroad ceased to operate, and the Babylon-Amityville Line was terminated two years later.
